Administrative History: The overlapping nature of the research interests and careers of  the Hübeners make it difficult to determine who was conducting the research and what the research was meant for.  For example, both scholars collaborated on a research project involving overseas British Empire literature while they were at the University of Bonn.  This study, which was meant to become a book,  encompassed English-language poetry, fiction and drama from countries such as Canada, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand and India.  At the same time, however, both scholars also taught English as a subject at University, meaning that the notes, citations and clippings involving English literature could have been meant for the research for their book or for their classes, or perhaps for both.  Similarly, both scholars taught German during their careers, and Jean Hübener was also working on a book involving intellectual resistance to the Nazis.  Consequently, references to German literature could have been created and used by either scholar, and could have been meant for a number of different purposes.

Scope and Content: This series contains a vast array of academic notes, clippings and papers collected and created by both Jean and Gustav Hübener.  The material was loosely sorted into the following sub-series:

Sub-series:
1.  Academic Research Notes, Clippings and Papers for Various Subjects. -- various dates
2.  Academic Research Notes, Clippings and Papers  for Enemies of the State.  A Study of the Intellectual
    Resistance in Nazi Germany. -- various dates

Notes:

Title: Title is based on contents of the series.

Related Material: There are draft manuscripts for Enemies of the State.  A Study of the Intellectual Resistance in Nazi Germany found in series 2.

There are books relating to topics found in this series which can be found in series 7.

Other: Where titles were not indicated on the original files, file titles have been imposed by the archivist using the first few lines of the notes, or assumed from the content of the notes.  Due to the fact that a large portion of the material was written in German, however, combined with the overlapping subject matter found throughout the series, file titles may not reflect everything contained within that file.
